We all love a game of fetch with our dogs. Some dogs, in particular, love to find and collect sticks. With natural sticks comes the huge risk of injury. Ask any vet, and they will tell you tales of dog stick injuries that will stop you from throwing wooden sticks for your dog forever. Risks include the stick splintering, getting lodged in their throat, being penetrated by the stick as they run after it or internal splinters from mouthing or chewing the stick. https://www.bva.co.uk/news-and-blog/blog-article/making-the-point-on-stick-injuries-in-dogs/
What Are Kong Safesticks

They are made with durable material that includes flexing and bouncing and float for added unpredictability and fun. The Safesticks have rounded ends to make them a safer option for interactive play.
